Fan skill

From Diablo Wiki

A fan skill is a Diablo-inspired skill for a fan class or perhaps a fan monster in the minds of one or more fans of the franchise. These are not official skills, or even official joke skills from Blizzard.

The fan skills are made to help give Blizzard ideas about their game development, for theorycrafting of what Blizzard might create next, or just right out unrealistic and funny. It can also be part of a contest or other event.

The idea to make a section for fan-created skills in Diablo Wiki was derived from the original additions of fan classes back in early June 2009. Since then, most invented skills have just been added on to skill lists of various fan classes, but a few have been made with their own page for easier linkeage. This page and its category is here to help fans create new and exciting creations that are made to inspire Blizzard, or perhaps just fellow fans.

Anyone with a little bit of imagination can make a fanmade article in the Diablo wiki. A minimum level of seriousness, or effort is required, and any entry is welcome.

Can I improve others' skills?

Normally in a wiki, you can edit anything anywhere, but since these articles are works by individuals, you should ask them for permission to edit. Fixing typos, grammatical errors or adding wiki links is of course always welcome.

Do I have to make a skill on my own, or can I collaborate with friends?

Of course you can collaborate with friends! Others then have to ask the collaboration group if they wish to help out.

How can you guarantee no one will edit my skill

It's a wiki, and we're all in it, there's no "you" to talk to to prevent it. The answer is that "we" can't prevent edits, only encourage people to ask the authors first. If you see edits classed as "vandalism" on your class, fix the issue and report the offending user to Leord or Holyknight3000.
